Circle House Coffee
727 NE 3rd Ave, Plantation, FL
Crema's Take
“Circle House Coffee in Plantation brings together serious espresso work and approachable hospitality in a space that genuinely welcomes both the laptop-bound regular and the quick-grab visitor. The kitchen turns out surprisingly solid food alongside thoughtfully pulled shots and pour-overs, creating that rare cafe dynamic where you feel equally comfortable lingering for hours or ducking in between errands. Just be aware that parking carries some complications worth checking on before your first visit—but the coffee and atmosphere have earned enough loyalty that regulars keep coming back.”

SCAM Business --- ...... The owner of this company ENLISTS AND PROFITS FROM USING a very shady company called Professional Parking Management. Feel free to Google, but for some context: PPM have ignored compliance with the Broward County ordinances that ruled against them and their predatory actions on citizens. PPM has likewise had lawsuits against them for these very same opportunistic and predatory practices. They have a F rating and nearly 1000 complaints recorded against them with the Better Business Bureau. Moreover ---- to even enter their website to file an appeal -- you need to Agree to their Terms and Conditions -- which basically states that you are agree you are liable for the fee you never agreed to in the first place. They have no brick and mortar business, just a PO Box and threatening letters. For my situation: PARKING WAS PAID (via PayByPhone) to park in the lot owned by Circle House ---- after seeing the threatening ticket in the mail with images of the car I realized the lot is also being surveilled (by PPM) and photos of vehicles are taken as you enter and exit the lot -----the ticket (after also paying to park there) was for 55-90$ issued to me (I was not even driving the car). The threat is -- pay or we are sending this to collections....To give benefit of the doubt, I called Circle House and was given an email address, which I wrote to Twice with no response to see if there was someone reasonable and a fair person to speak to this. I also went back to try and see if there were signs that were posted... its conveniently in small text and painted over with graffiti...(I do have pics now). The assistant person who answered the phone at Circle House mistook me for another phone call -- same complaint. Bottom line ----- Circle House is MAKING A CUT and would clearly rather PREY ON CUSTOMERS than rely on their product actually being good or worth going there for. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS Bullshit predatory Company!!!!
Circle House uses a professional parking management company. But they also have meters at the parking spots. I paid the public parking meters and was still charged by their professional parking company. How can you charge someone who pays the meter? The professional parking company has no way to communicate with them but only to pay the bill. I complained to the Circle House manager who is a white male with dark hair. I gave him the invoice from the professional parking company as well as proof of my payment for parking those days. Circle House is 30 minutes from my home on a good day. I drove that far to support this business only to be fined $50 two days in a row for parking I paid for. The manager took the Information and promised to share with the company. 1 year later I’m still being harassed by their parking company. The owners need to check the manager because he might be in cahoots with the parking company. Why do you even need the parking company when there are the paybyphone meters?? They’re going to say to pay by phone but I did. Why would you still use this company? They can’t track if you paid by phone or not because it’s owned by the county. What’s the purpose of this company??
This place has so much potential and it is so aggravating to write this review because I cannot express how many times I’ve given them a chance thinking I would have a different experience. Their food & drinks are good HOWEVER ordering is a nightmare. COUNTLESS times I’ve ordered a coffee, with clear instructions, and they get it completely wrong. And this happens 99% of the time. I ask for a large, I get a medium. I ask for caramel latte, I get a honey bee. Additionally, the drinks are SO inconsistent. One day my drink will taste good, the next it’s watered down and flavorless. There was also one time I ordered an egg wrap and they got the wrong wrap so I told the lady at the window. She demanded that I give the wrap back, that I already took a bite out of. (Which doesn’t bother me btw I just wanted what I ordered) but the manner in which she did it was rude and not polite AT ALL. And food safety they should never take food back. Also, ordering and waiting is so extremely long for coffee. It takes over 20mins sometimes to get through the drive through. I want to love circle house but EVERY visit is so disappointing.
If you’re looking for a cafe with good, quick food, you have to come here!! I’ve been coming here for a few years now and it never disappoints. Most of the time, I go through the drive-through and everything comes out quick and my order is always right. Here and there I’ll also sit inside to do work and it’s always a good vibe and good atmosphere. There’s outlets at the table and good WiFi. Special thank you to Axel and Michelle—they always make it a phenomenal experience!!🫶🫶
Oh man, this coffee shop is a hidden gem! The food is delicious, the customer service is top-notch, and it’s super clean—like, seriously spotless. It’s got that perfect cozy vibe, and if you’re looking for a little privacy to relax or get some work done, this is the spot. You know, um, I just love the atmosphere here. It’s peaceful but still has that nice buzz of a great café. I highly recommend checking it out. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or settling in for some work, you won’t be disappointed!
